ALPENA–Glik’s has been a staple store at the Alpena Mall for two decades, but a move to downtown is imminent.
The store’s new home at the Harborside Center-Shopping Mall is under renovation. While that is ongoing, the mall store will remain open until it is time for the transition to the new location.
Glik’s co-owner Jeff Glik said Thursday that the store’s time at the mall helped establish the brand in Alpena that his great-grandfather started in 1897.

ALPENA The Alpena Municipal Council voted 5-0 on Tuesday to allow the Alpena Farmers Market to utilize and manage a city-owned building at Mich-e-ke-wis Park.
Farmers Market will pay the city $400 a month to use the building twice a week. The group also will maintain the building and grounds where the market operates.
The contract runs through Dec. 31, 2025, but there is an out clause through which both parties can exit the agreement with 30 days’ written notice with cause and a minimum 90 days advance notice without cause.
The Farmers Market’s payment will increase each year by 2% or the rate of inflation, whichever is less.

ALPENA A crowd formed early at a Monday vaccination clinic at the Alpena Mall, where about 300 people had received their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccination by noon, according to health officials.
The vaccine requires two doses to be fully effective. It is currently open to health care workers, first responders, teachers and other child care workers, and those 65 and older.
In the first hour of Monday’s appointment-only clinic, a line of people waiting for shots snaked through the hallway and out the door of the mall, according to Matt Radocy, emergency preparedness coordinator for District Health Department No. 4.
